Color- charcoal, absolutely beautiful and I get compliments on it all the time. Fit- I'm a 32DD and I NEVER EVER go without a bra in class. Things are just too bouncy. However, when I tried this on for the first time, I was amazed at how secure I felt. I did end up tucking some little pads inside, so I wouldn't be poking through the front, but that was just a personal preference. I ordered a Medium and it fit me perfectly (Bust 32DD, Waist 27.5", Hips at the widest point 40", Girth 58"). I should also mention that sometimes cross-over style tops gape if you twist or lean forward, but I never have any such worries with this leo. It does show some tasteful cleavage, but I happen to like that. Sleeve- It's difficult to see in the picture, unless you zoom in, but it does have a true cap-sleeve seam and it's not ruched in any way. So the girls in the picture are wearing it a little higher on their shoulders than I find comfortable, but it wasn't a big deal to me. Overall- I love this leo and will be watching closely to see what other colors it comes out in. (Navy Blue please? Teal? Army Green? I would totally have a whole wardrobe full of these...)

Excellent Leo, short in girth though

I'm 5'8 and 145 pounds, 61 girth and 28 waist. The large initially fit fine but after washing it, it was definitely too short in the girth. I can still wear it but it does ride up (so I make sure to wear the tights over the leo). I have it in red and grey and both colors are true; the red looks great and I've worn it to multiple auditions. I'm 36inches in the bust and it holds everything securely. I'm ordering an XL in hopes that it will shrink down to be the perfect size because I love the cut of it so much.

Where has this leotard been my whole life?! I tried this on, not knowing what to expect, and I am very impressed! Although somewhat low cut in the front, nothing is visible. The detailing with the mock wrap is beautiful and it helps the upper parts stay put. It is very comfortable to move in, and this is a leo that would flatter anyone!

This leo is AMAZING. I'm 5'5" and weigh 115 pounds and the medium fits great. I have a longer torso so it's snug but not in a uncomfortable way. The style is classic and it's very flattering. I'm definitely going to get it in the other colors.

Flattering leo

by: collegedancer28 - 08/27/2014

Comfort:

I usually wear a large, but since there were a lot of reviews that said this leotard ran small I bought an x-large. I found the x-large a bit loose, but it still fit pretty well so I kept it. I'm guessing the large would have fit me, but it would have probably been a bit snug. I am an hourglass shape, girth about 63", 34D bra size, and overweight for a dancer. The leotard is flattering for my shape, but I do need to wear a bra underneath for support and to layer so that I don't show a lot of cleavage.

Such a beautiful leotard! I am a 34 D and it covers perfectly and holds you in very well! Beautiful fit with high cut aspect as well. All over beautiful and is worth every penny! Bought in other two colors because I loved it so much!

Comfortable leo

The small in this leo comfortable on my 5'1", 80lb, boob-less body, which I had to wear in the gasoline color for a performance, under a tunic thing. It was very flattering on almost everyone in the dance, with boobs bigger to non existent (me). The material seems very durable and doesn't show sweat. The low back is flattering and so is the front. I wanted one in the jade color, but they stopped offering it. I am considering getting this in black for a ballet summer intensive instead.

Most flattering leo I own!

I LOVE this leotard so much! It is absolutely the most flattering one I have ever owned. I am 5'2-3" and about 110lbs and I ordered a small in black. It fits really, really well. I have a very small bust (A cup) and this accentuates what I have quite nicely. It actually makes it look like I have boobs; the v-neck & pleating is extremely flattering.
I have "large" hips (proportionate to my upper body) and this is one of the few leotards I have found that fits all parts of my body perfectly (usually I end up with some pinching around the leg holes because of my butt/hips).
I expected short, t-shirt like sleeves--these are actually cap sleeves, but they are really cute and look nice.
The shelf lining is perfect for me (I'm not sure how it would be for someone with a bigger bust, but it would probably be fine) and I don't ever have any problems with bouncing or jiggling.
The fabric is a nice quality and does not show sweat (I don't know about the other colours, but it probably would not show too much because it isn't cotton) and is very breathable.
Another thing I like about this leotard is that it doesn't show the lines from my tights! One of my pairs of tights creates a slight "muffin top" but it is barely noticeable under the leotard, unlike some others that I own.
Go buy this leotard!! It is AMAZING! :)

Love it!

I really love this leotard. I got it in gasoline, a large, and it fits perfectly. I normally wear mediums but since the other reviewers said it ran small, I went up and I'm so glad I did! It definitely runs small and it's kinda short for a leotard, but it still fits perfectly. I'm 5'9, bust size B...and speaking of busts, there seems to be a lot of room for them. It's not like there is extra fabric hanging around but if you're pretty busty I bet this leotard would look great on you. (: Oh and the picture doesn't do it justice either. It looks better in person!

I love this leotard. It is very elegant & I feel very beautiful in it. I am an older dancer/teacher & don't have the "dancer" shape I use to, but I love my lines wearing this beautiful leotard. My only complaint is, it does separate the "girls".

This leotard is really pretty. It's not a very dark black, but it works. It does offer a lot of support and coverage, but it is a little stiff feeling. it also needs a camisole, but I knew it would need one before I purchased it.I'm 5' 6'' and weigh around 115-116 and I got a medium. It was a little snug, but not enough to get a bigger size. Over all, I really like it.

Just received this leotard in the mail, and I love it! The material is really unique and so soft. The color jade is a blueish green teal. I ordered a large based on the other reviews, and I'm happy I did! I am 5'7", 127 lbs, very busty, and have a small ribcage. It's really flattering, but I would never dream of wearing it without something beneath. It would be way to low-cut! I layer my leotards anyway, so it's no big deal to me! Can't wait to wear it to class!

This is a good leotard. I have it in gasoline, which is nice dark gray. This girth is little short and the neck can be a little low-cut if your chest is on the larger side, but I actually like wearing a black camisole bra underneath it anyway because it gives it an interesting layered look. And it's cotton, so it does show sweat easily, but overall I enjoy wearing it!

Looks great on many body types!

I had my class purchase these for a performance, and every body type from small to XL looked lovely. It's slimming and not plain with the wrap front. The turquoise is bold and bright! Highly recommend!

I love the cap sleeve and mock wrap look, and it actually looks the same in real life as it does on the model. The fabric is soft and comfy, the fit perfect, and the coverage great (5'1", 110, 34A) so I'm quite pleased. The only thing I wish were different were if the wrap was connected--I'm going to tack it together so it doesn't come apart by accident (eep!). But that's easy enough. Can hardly wait to see how it wears in class!

I thought that the leotard might not fit when I bought it, but it fits perfectly. I am not busty nor am I particularly tall, but regardless, it fits to a tee. The fabric is also very comfortable, and has a very elegant line to it. Love it.
